      Following the top-grossing film of 1970, Love Story, Airport adhered to the same formula as other 1970s disaster films like The Poseidon Adventure and The Towering Inferno:

      Assemble a group of A-list stars, place them in danger, and watch the drama unfold.

      Burt Lancaster once labeled Airport as “the biggest piece of junk ever made,” yet it spawned three sequels and was ultimately parodied in the 1980 film Airplane.

      1971

      This film about a Vietnam veteran who is also a part-Navajo hapkido master was a major success in 1971, especially following its re-release — even outpacing Dirty Harry, the first of Clint Eastwood’s five films featuring San Francisco cop Harry Callahan.

      Here’s another key hint: It starred Tom Laughlin in the leading role and is recognized for the song “One Tin Soldier.”

      1971 Answer: Billy Jack

      Believe it or not, Billy Jack did surpass Dirty Harry. It benefited from being based on a character that audiences were already familiar with, having first appeared in the 1967 biker film The Born Losers (above).

      Billy Jack remains a cult classic from the 1970s.

      1972

      In 1972, Marlon Brando appeared in two of the Top 10 highest-grossing films. The first, as you probably guessed, was The Godfather.

      Can you guess the second film he starred in alongside Maria Schneider (above)?

      Hint: The title includes a city name.

      And the film is…

      1972 Answer: Last Tango in Paris

      Indeed, it’s Last Tango in Paris, a film that has faced criticism in recent years due to Schneider’s claims of mistreatment by Brando and director Bernardo Bertolucci during a pivotal scene involving butter.

      This film also made our list of Movies with Sex Scenes That Should Have Been Stopped.

      1973

      This film appears to be a classic from the 1940s rather than a hit from the 1970s, and that’s intentional.

      If you’ve seen this charming film featuring the star of 1970’s biggest hit alongside his real-life daughter, you surely remember it.

      Though it’s sad, it’s undeniably a delightful movie.

      1973 Answer: Paper Moon

      Paper Moon features Ryan O’Neal, who also topped the box office alongside Ali MacGraw in 1970’s Love Story. The film tells a Depression-era tale of a con artist traveling with a feisty child who may be his daughter.

      Director Peter Bogdanovich cleverly cast O’Neal’s actual daughter, Tatum, who rightfully won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.

      1974

      1974 was an outstanding year for Mel Brooks, as he released not only the top film Blazing Saddles but also another comedy satirizing a different genre.

      This should be a simple one for comedy enthusiasts.

      By the way, here are some Behind the Scenes Stories of Blazing Saddles.

      And now, scroll down for the answer.

      1974 Answer: Young Frankenstein

      The comedy classic Young Frankenstein continued to play in theaters into 1975, where members of Aerosmith saw it and borrowed one of its best jokes for the title of their hit “Walk This Way,” as noted in our list of Classic Rock Songs Inspired by Movies We Love.

      Not only is it one of the standout films of the 1970s, but it also inspired one of the biggest hits of that era.

      This film is a cult classic that is still shown in theaters across the country today.
